The Havelock Literary and Crab Pot Society (book club/group) will be meeting tomorrow, Wednesday, June 28th at 10:00 AM at the Havelock Public Library for the discussion of the book, “Sunday’s Child.” The discussion will be led by Denise Wheeler. We  have really lively discussions so looking forward to seeing you all there.

Also at that time you will receive the next book, “Fast Food Nation” and the discussion for that book is scheduled for August 2nd at 10:00 AM.  The books are available for check out at the library circulation desk.

Also each member will receive a book title list and you get to choose ten (10) titles that you would like to read for the upcoming year.  All lists must be completed and turned in by August 2nd, 2017.

Luann Rottmann will compile, collate, and develop our book reading list for next year. Please make sure you get your list as we want everyone to have a hand in choosing our reading list for next year.

Hope to see you tomorrow!
